5.2.4 is huge pain in the ass

JessieS

From what I understand I shouldn’t Debuff the enemies and I should avoid blocking and parrying right ? Anybody else got any advice ? And suggestion on which are the best champions? This is my roster

Masochism is on a timer. Parry once, fail, parry 2nd time with the limit and succeed.
Trick is to deprogram your auto reflex when parrying.

You got a very strong roster. You can either:
1. Block earlier after a combo so you don't parry. Bait and punish heavies and specials
2. Put up with it
3. Overwhelm with debuffs. Archangel, Nick Fury, Sunspot got at that
4. Use a counter - Proxima Midnight ignore Masochism.

I agree with the message above. I would add sabretooth with killmonger synergy

Giuliameij

If you just play somewhat normally and get 1 mission on that corvus of yours. You will easily outdamage the Masochism.

Stealthy will destroy everyone on that node as he will out damage EVERYONE since the start, I use him for everything

If you can reparry, masochism just makes for a longer fight. 100% worth learning to reparry imo

Kill_Grey

You can use your torch for the doctor strange, lit on your prefight and you're good to go!
Personally, I used a synergised ghost for pretty much the entire thing, no debuffs, no Regen. She cheeses the caltrops path, and I remember using either quake or warlock for fights like magneto, electro and juggy.
